We are thrilled to debut a new collection of limited-edition apparel and products Diane von Furstenberg, a long-time supporter of Friends of the High Line.

The exclusive collection features soft cotton T-shirts, notebooks, magnets, a printed scarf, a sunhat, and a canvas tote bag emblazoned with colorful illustrations and the phrase “Dreams Come True on the High Line.” These special products capture the creative energy and spirit behind making the once so-called “impossible dream” of the High Line come true, something that would not have been possible without the visionary support of Diane and her family.

We were so excited about the collection’s debut that we recently took some of the items for a test run on the High Line. Follow us after the jump to see more photos from the shoot.

When you see High Line Custodian Judith Simon on the High Line, she is always busy at work, tidying up the park’s pathways and answering questions from visitors. Here she takes a much-needed break. Wearing DVF’s High Line T-shirt and her signature headphones, Judith is caught in the moment, singing and dancing to her favorite tunes.
